Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist in Los Angeles

Hi, I’m Alexandra, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and a proud Angeleno. My journey to becoming a therapist began after my life was deeply impacted by anxiety and narcissistic abuse. For a long time, I managed to hold everything together. Eventually, life took an unexpected turn, leaving me feeling lost and uncertain. Fortunately, I had the support of an incredible therapist who guided me through the process of moving forward.

Through my own healing, I've come to understand that finding peace requires navigating both the heavy burdens we carry, whether they feel like bricks—one big obstacle—or like sand—countless small challenges. These experiences have shaped my ability to connect with my clients on a deeply personal and professional level.

My approach is warm, engaging, and supportive. I take an exploratory perspective, viewing the past as a valuable tool for understanding the present. My goal is to create a validating and safe space where you can talk openly about your experiences, whether you're navigating the aftermath of a traumatic breakup, struggling with abuse, or grappling with its lingering effects. If you find yourself constantly looking over your shoulder, feeling like you’ve done something wrong, fearing being alone, or anxious about what comes next, you’re not alone.

I work with my clients to transform unwanted thoughts and behaviors into a foundation of self-compassion and empowerment. Together, we approach this journey with honesty and care, embracing the steps that lead to greater compassion for ourselves and others.

Together, we can explore the thoughts, feelings, and ideas that may be causing you stress and working to make sense of them so that the weight you carry feels lighter. This process can help you further greater independence, self-love, and healthier relationships with yourself and others.

If you've found yourself here and are ready to seek support, I both know and honor the strength it takes to take that step. I am here to walk this journey with you, offering my support along the way.
